Wait a minute, Dakota.

David Kendall was such an influential and inspirational man who just brought such an infectious energy to set.

He was always making jokes and he was always doing his best to make everybody smile and lighten the mood.

He was kind of just like the dad on set.

He always brought the dad jokes and the puns.

And it was just such a refreshing spirit to have around.

And I'm so blessed to have learned so much from him.

And the fact that he did our pilot and like our very first episode of Sydney to the Max, he like set the tone for the series.

I just feel so fortunate to have worked with him and to have learned from him at such a young age.

And he's just taught me things that I will keep with me forever.

And I hope that he rests in peace.

And I am sending so much love and prayers to his family and his children.

And I feel very fortunate to have spent the time with him that I did.
